DKC3730

Hybrid sweet corn DKC3730 is a high-yielding mid-early variety with an FAO index of 280, intended for grain and silage production. Plants reach a height of 230-250 cm, with ear attachment height of 110-118 cm. The ear contains 14-16 rows of kernels, each row with 28-30 dent-type kernels, totaling 460-620 kernels per ear. Starch content in the grain is 73%, ensuring high energy value of the product. The hybrid features a strong root system and high initial growth energy, promoting rapid development and adaptation to various growing conditions. DKC3730 exhibits high stress resistance and tolerance to common corn diseases, including fusarium, anthracnose, and smut, with resistance ratings from 8 to 9. Plants show high drought resistance (8 points) and lodging resistance (9 points), making the hybrid a reliable choice for various climatic zones, including the Polissia and forest-steppe regions of Ukraine. The hybrid is adapted for cultivation on all soil types and suitable for conventional, minimum, and no-till soil preparation. Soil temperature for sowing should not be lower than 8 °C. Recommended planting density varies depending on moisture levels: under adequate moisture, optimal density is 75-85 thousand plants per hectare; under insufficient moisture — 65-70 thousand. The hybrid demonstrates rapid moisture dissipation, contributing to timely maturation and reduced risk of yield loss. Its suitability for monoculture and high adaptability make DKC3730 a universal and effective solution for farmers seeking a stable and high-quality sweet corn harvest.
